3 Deans Ave, Chch

After lovingly renovating this magnificent homestead for the past 11 years, the time has come to pass on the reins.

Situated two kilometres east of Ashburton and just a convenient 60-minute drive from Christchurch Airport, this remarkable home has undergone a substantial renovation to the highest of standards and is stunning in every respect. It features extensive and thoughtful improvements that preserve the charm of yesteryear while embracing the comforts and style desired in today's lifestyle.

The heart of the home centres around the classic kitchen and scullery, providing casual dining at either the central island or in the bright, welcoming casual dining area that overlooks the potager garden. This space flows beautifully to the deck and garden terrace for relaxed summer alfresco dining, all with views of the spring-fed lake. The spacious family room, featuring an open fireplace and a prominent bay window, offers a welcome retreat from the hectic pace of modern life. Entertaining here is effortless, with a dedicated formal dining room, a billiard room complete with a cosy fireside nook, and a formal sitting room, each adding its own charm to Penscroft. The downstairs area includes a mudroom, laundry, separate WC, and powder room.

The family's needs are fulfilled upstairs with four bedrooms, two ensuites, and a luxurious family bathroom radiating from the central landing. For guests, there is a separate guest suite downstairs, featuring an ensuite and dressing room.

Diesel hot water radiators throughout, underfloor heating, and functional fireplaces create a blend of comfort and sophistication. The home is surrounded by park-like gardens featuring a stunning mix of mature plantings, magnificent trees, expansive lawns, a spring-fed lake, two fully fenced, irrigated paddocks, a seven-bay shed, and two further paddock sheds offering valuable storage space.

Properties of this calibre rarely come onto the market, so don't hesitate to call me for the viewing times. This is a gem you certainly won't want to miss.
